I suspect that it does preserve a connection if your next request is quick enough. However, it may as well be a new connection because it seems to lose it place in the directory structure and needs to reissue directory change commands each time. Haven't done the timings but Rebol visibly appears to be far far slower than other programs for doing multiple FTP transfers.
